My LED dome light (PICS) 56K sure
ordered the LED board of ebay this week and got it yesterday :)
heres the pics with a lil step by step so you can see everything I did...just don't fry anything, I almost did. the back of that board was exposed and when I sat it up their it threw sparks, so I took it out and wrapped the back with electric tape. Is it safe to do that?
anyways its a very easy mod, takes prolly...5 mins.
this is your OEM setup...its okay, just needs something...
heres the LED test fitting, cover with electrical tape 1ST!!! or get burned, lol
there it is...looks good...
and heres the light, I love it

Haha...that's good. You'd be amazed what a small voltage spike will do to a good set of LED's/resistors!
